For our in-person meeting of 22 September, in the second of a series of presentations on local Fort Collins companies with world-wide impact, Dave Stewart interviewed John Carter, Vice President and Senior Principal of CPP Wind Engineering of Fort Collins. Mr. Carter began with a history of the company which was started as a university program in the 1950s by Dr. Jack Cermak at CSU.
On Thursday, September 16th, we volunteered at the Poudre High School Mobile Pantry. The Food Bank is hosting pop-up mobile food pantries throughout Larimer County. Anyone in need of food is welcome to attend. The pantries are “drive-through” where clients can receive a variety of pre-selected food items. We served over 108 families on Thursday.
At our meeting in the Lincoln Center on October 13th at noon, fellow Rotarian Judge Juan Villaseñor will share his observations on the adjustments our courts and the related governmental offices have had to make in response to the pandemic and general social unrest we have all been dealing with for some time now. Judge Villaseñor was appointed to the District Court bench in 2018. He received his undergraduate degree from St. John’s College in 1997 and his law degree from Vanderbilt University Law School in 2001.
Last week we listened to an excellent and important talk entitled Restorative Justice in Our Community. We were fortunate to have two presenters, Perrie McMillen, Supervisor of the City’s mediation and Restorative Justice Services and Cpl Jarad Sargent, a Poudre R-1 school resource officer (SRO).
